Nokia Lumia 735 Signing in to account - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My mum uses a 735 as she finds its easier to use than android, but i'm her tech support (i always use android) so i just bought a 735 from ebay just so i can talk my mum through how to do things if she's stuck (she's 81)
I'm having trouble signing in to my hotmail account on the phone, it seems like it's not finding any server to connect to.
Is it only the store & support that finished?
I should still be able to log into my HM account on the phone?

Sorry, but Windows Phone 8.1's support has officially ended since 2018 (I think), and has finally plugged out its services since December 2019. The only option is to either upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile or switch to another os. If you can't due to some various and valid reasons, you can try unlocking the phone for dev use (dev unlock) and deploy xap/appx/appxbundle files of apps you like to install... But that includes luck if someone else has that. (I don't want to promote piracy, but you need pirated/cracked xap/appx files in order to deploy them without error)
If you just wanted to add an email provider, use the "advanced setup" option in settings > email+accounts.
Unless someone has finally found the solution for WP 8.1 without upgrading to Windows 10 to install apps from the Store, you have to rely on finding deploying app files in the Internet.

Hi,
If WP7 was not official launched in India you cannot access those features.
You must create or change your Windows Live account to a region that has WP7 official (UK, USA, Spain, Germany)
Thanks
Had the same issue.
So I have 1 official live account with India region(which I will use when WP7 releases world wide)
and an unofficial live account I currently use for downloading free apps.This one uses the address of a US Mc. Donalds outlet in Bethesda .
Cheers.
Have the same problem.
Can you provide a small guide as to how to go about it.
Btw is it possible to have to live accounts on the same phone?
Also I have already activated the phone with India all over.. so do i have to reset it to enter the fake ID?
Thanks in advance..
I just mailed HTC India regarding it since its now officially available moreover I bought the product with a 1 year warranty.
We can do this without creating ( and wasting time ) a US account
Use regedit and navigate to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Zune\Features
You will find 3 keys in it
Apps
Marketplace
singInavailable
in all those key values add IN for example
AT,AU,BE,CA,CH,DE,ES,FR,GB,IE,IT,MX,NZ,SG,US,IN
Launch Zune. Now you will be able to see marketplace. You can make purchase with your credit card , download free apps / games.
Only catch is : after we sync it with zune , registry value changes. You might have to redo this stuff. But the advantage is that when the marketplace is launched in india it will be seemless integration.
Hi asksaravana,
Your tips was truely helpful. I could download some useful apps from the marketplace.
I recently bought a T-Mobile handset HTCHD7 from US.
I want to use it India. Unfortunately all the T-Mobile applications are US specific.
Is there any ways to get Airtel specific applications?
Regards,
Ram.

This works, but now some of the downloaded applications have new versions. How to update them. Marketplace in phone shows 10 updates, but when you click, it gives errors that not available in your country/region.
Found a way to update installed applications on phone.
Install marketplace browser.
Search for the installed application in marketplace browser.
Once you open the application page, you will see update button if there is a new version for the installed app.
Click update and update all your apps one by one.
Marketplace thru Wifi / GPRS
Hey guys, just reached this thread, is there a way any one figured out to get marketplace working either by wifi or gprs / 3G
Coz trying to browse the market from the phone shows " Not Available on your Region" - Zune works perfect.

Solution Found for Marketplace in india
open up zune.
create a new live account from within zune. select location as US.
it will automatically sign you in .
go to your control panel - region and language.
set the location to US under the location tab.
apply the registry hack as mentioned in the above posts.
restart zune.
you can access apps , music, videos . podcasts in marketplace now.
i have been doing this.works all the time.
( you need to change the registry settings everytime before opening zune. or create a registry and that will make everything little easy )
have fun
So is Marketplace still not available in India?
I just switched to Windows Phone. I even bought an app using an Indian account and an Indian credit card. However, the only way I can access Marketplace is by making the registry changes. I can't access it in my phone.
I just uninstalled an app and I have no idea how to re-install it. Can anyone help?

Please help me about wp8 xap

Hi,
I am Roberto from Italy, two days ago I bought a Samsung Actic s WP8
I would like to install xap file, but I do not know how to do it
Is there anyone that can help me?
Thanks in adavence
If it's an app for your job, then associate your phone with your company's server (Settings -> Company Apps) then send the app to your phone (for example, using email).
If it's an app from the store, just open the store, hit the Search button to find it, and install it.
If it's a homebrew app, you'll need a developer unlock for your phone. This requires a developer account; these typically cost $99 USD/year, and you can get them through http://dev.windowsphone.com. Then you'll need the Windows Phone SDK, which contains the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool (to dev-unlock the phone) and the Application Deployment tool (to sideload the XAP).
If you're trying to pirate an app that is in the store, kindly read the rules of this site and then leave.
Sorry I wanted to say:
If I dowload a xap file from this forum, then how can install it on my wp8 phone. My phone has room for aMicro SD too
Thanks in advance
Like gooddaytodie say..
Without a developer unlock u cant install homebrew apps.
And if this app needs root access there is currently no way...
Sent from my GT-I8750 using Board Express

apps

is it possible that i sideload apps that i did not download from the official website?? if yes then how??
Assuming you mean un-encrypted homebrew or beta apps, yes. You need the WP8 SDK from Microsoft, then use the Windows Phone Developer Registration tool to dev-unlock your phone. Dev-unlock with a free account (that is to say, any typical Microsoft/Windows Live account) will only allow sideloading up to two apps at once. For $19/year, you can get up to 10 at once, though. In either case, you would then use the "Application Deployment" tool to install the XAP.
If it's an app that you *should* have gotten from the store - a game, or any paid app especially - then no. It will be encrypted with a DRM scheme that we haven't yet broken, and honestly, I wouldn't tell you how even if I knew.
I'm a little confused with all these new things.
There is not now another way to sideload un-encrypted homebrew without developer registration?
It is not possible to modify the xap of an homebrew to show it in the marketplace thanks to a proxy?
No and no.
Ok thank you. It was to be sure because I had a doubt when I read what o2neouzr tries to do there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398275&page=8

Am I able to bypass FRP lock by rolling back android version?

Hey guys, I’m a new android user here.
If been trying to bypass this frp lock on this HUAWEI P9, because my uncle forgot the password for it. I’ve tried multiple methods, like using talkback, to open google, but I’ve come about a plethora of issues.
-I’m unable to open privacy policy of YouTube, so can’t open chrome(it doesn’t do anything)
-Google Chrome doesn’t open, so I can’t download go launcher or apex launcher.
-hyperlinks don’t open, so can’t open chrome.
-tried to email myself “quick shortcut maker” when I used the share option in a YouTube video. I’m unable to download the quick shortcut maker for no reason(stays at 0% then exits)
-google play doesn’t open and instead goes to input “verify your google account” page.
-I did reach settings by google voice in google maps, but apps and accounts tab don’t open, and system tab isn’t there.
So now I’m think maybe I can’t rollback or reinstall android to remove the lock. Does it work like that?
I have Android nougat, and EMUI 5.0.3
Build is EVA-L09C432B504.
Android update security level is July 1, 2018
I have no clue about “oem” or “bootloader” being unlocked. Can someone explain it to me and if possible, downgrade this phone to remove the lock? I have an sd card. Also, the phone isn’t recognized on my laptop. I had HiSuite installed, but still didn’t recognize it. What am I doing wrong here?
Someone please help and explain it to me, this is why I use iPhones instead lol.
You could reset the Google password from PC and/or another phone if the account was linked to a phone number or another mail.
Otherwise FRP (Factory Reset Protection) is too firm to be tricked by rolling back pr so.
There were couple of users who claimed that they bought (P9) phones over Internet where sellers (?!) did not remove accounts before shipping, and the only way to get rid of the previous Google accounts and the corresponding protection was to use paid service (it worked) by DC Phoenix/Unlocker:
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/DC-Phoenix-flash-repair-tutorial
Ministry of Solutions might be cheaper but they usually require (for unbricking and so) TeamViewer remote connection to your PC (DC gives you the PC tools and you have to work on your own):
https://ministryofsolutions.com/paid-services/amp
If you are really a freak you could open back+cover, and use Testpoint connections for low-level reflashing the phone. I know only of one guide but for Mate 9:
